Jazzland

Yesterday was an adventure. On my ride into New Orleans I saw a mammoth structure which appeared to be a roller coaster, my sightings were confirmed by the man sitting next to me, Tree, who explained to me that this was Jazzland, later renamed Six Flags: New Orleans. The amusement park was shut down after Katrina and has not reopened since. I couldn't think of a cooler place to visit.

Unused monitors

Abandoned alleyways

Welcome...welcome...welcome

I enjoyed capturing the curves and corners

A pair of rusted fans, one still blowing in the wind

Rusted toolkit

The bottom of a water ride

Endless staircase

My best shot of the day, in my opinion, the light just worked out perfectly
